奇葩歌词大赏「二」:情妇纠结日记
大家对Markéta Irglová这个名字可能比较陌生,但如果说到她的代表作《Once》大家应该都有所了解,她是电影的女主角,「If You Want Me」则是她最为人熟知的音乐作品。
在和前夫,也就是《Once》的男主角Glen Hansard分道扬镳后,Markéta Irglová继续自己的独立发展道路,迄今除了两张个人专辑《Anar》和《Muna》,两张专辑的风格迥异,但相近的都是Markéta Irglová那美妙悠扬,细腻耐听的歌声和旋律,用捷克人的独特的英文咬字把情歌唱得百转千回,推荐大家细细品味。
故事是这样开始的:
「也许你早已感受到我对你的爱慕,不然那次聚会你不会做出这样的举动。你坐我旁边,温柔的手假装无意地轻抚我的膝盖,顷刻间我无比欢欣。所以我选择不拆穿你,因为那一刻的“亲密接触”我已期待甚久,即使我深知,对你我而言这都不是一件得体的事。
我已经不止一次这么幻想,有那么一天你会在家一直陪着我,无所烦忧,陪我开怀大笑,陪我做做家务,陪我谈谈心事,哪怕只是陪着我,什么都不做。我是多么多么渴望能有你在我的身边啊,可是,我还是不敢奢望能把你留住。你有你的她,她在你最难熬的日子里,抚慰了你的伤痛。你说你对她只是感恩不是爱,可你也是个体面的人啊,贸然离开她不会是你的所为。
每当你出现,你都能牢牢地攫住我的注视,即使我表现得多么冷静,多么克制。但我骗不了自己,我的心如小鹿乱撞,我的双膝瞬息软弱无力,而我的心已经狂奔扑向你,狠狠地拥抱着你。我一再警告自己,拥有你只是一个奢求,永远不可能发生。所以,我求求你,别再刺激我,别再挑起我这个念头,我不知道我还能坚持多久,也许再一秒我就会放弃我的理智。所以,我求求你,你回去吧,你回到你的那个她身边吧,既然你不能成为我的男人,那就不要再耽误彼此的时间了。你走吧。」
这次介绍的两首“情妇词”都出自Markéta Irglová的《Anar》专辑,分别是「Your Company」和「Go Back」。为什么要一次过介绍两首,而且为什么是这两首呢?原因有二。第一,这张专辑我最喜欢这两首歌;第二,这两首词的剧情能够串联起来,完整且细致地讲述一个小三从纠结不舍,到最后坚定放手的心路历程。Markéta的细腻演唱把词中的疯狂爱恋,纠缠为难,前顾后盼和软弱无助表达得恰到好处。Markéta一直把自己放在一个弱势的角色里,低声吟唱第三者的矛盾和无助,虽然软弱,但是唱得很坚定,爱得无悔,放手虽不容易,但也义不容辞。
Your Company - Markéta Irglová
I've got it all figured out baby
You'll come home with me and we will laugh
Our worries away and you can stay as long as you please
Cos I'm really just glad that I could have met you
It's easy to see how much I like your company
But I wouldn't dream of trying to keep you
Well you know how they say that love heals all fear
Well in a similar vein I thrive when you're near
But you've had your pain and you've had your grief
And at the hardest of times she brought you relief
And you love her even if only for that
And she knows that she saved you
And she won't let you forget
But I remember the time that I sat beside
You and your hand brushed against my knee
I thought I would die for that alone instantly
But I'm sure you knew just how good that would feel
Well I had good reason for not seeing this through
Oh but now I forget and I don't know what to do
But you can hold my hand
You can kiss me too just while I try and remember
Why I shouldn't want you oh oh oh oh
Go Back - Markéta Irglová
To know the pain of too much tenderness
I'd give myself to thee
But just to clarify my keeping distance
I confess that I know All too well
You're not to be with me
But From across the room you held my gaze
The keeper of my heart came
To greet you with a warm embrace
Now I feel this heat in my hands and feet
I have a belly full of butterflies
And weakness in my knees
You better not come any closer
Cause I'll lose myself if you do
And if in truth I cannot have you
Don't encourage me wanting you
Go back go back
Go back go back
Go back hurry while you still can
Go back now don't delay yourself
If you cannot be my man
Go back go back
Go back go back
Go back stop teasing me now go back
Go back don't tempt me now go back
Be fair now stop torturing me go back
Be good and go back
Go back go back go back
Go back go back go back
